Pocket Lint - There's now competition in Windows Phone. Where Nokia (as it was) ruled, there's a new challenger, in the body of one of the best Android phones around.
The launch of the HTC One (M8) for Windows marks the first time a flagship device has been available with a choice of mobile OS and for Windows Phone, this is exciting times.
But with both devices hitting shelves going head-to-head. The Lumia 930 is available now, the HTC One (M8) for Windows has just been announced, exclusive to Verizon from tomorrow. Here we're calling out the differences.
Microsoft recently launched gold-trimmed version of Nokia Lumia 930 in a bid to compete with many color variants offered by iPhone.
"Looking back on the year that was, 2014 was probably one of the most competitive years for smartphone manufacturers in a good while. It’s not just Apple products on the radar of the trendy, and that’s also a good thing.
As a result, we’ll give you our top phones of the year, the real stand out performers, sellers and jet setters, that have undoubtedly been the most important and exciting releases of the year."
I think Xiaomi's phones could've made the list given their overall success in China.
And India..you don't forget phones selling out in 6 seconds not once not twice not thrice but more than 10 times now.
Maximum PC: It came as a bit of a surprise when Microsoft and HTC announced a cloned version of the One M8 handset running Windows Phone 8.1 software. After all, it's HTC's flagship Android smartphone, and by porting it over to Windows Phone 8.1, HTC claims it marks the first time that an iconic flagship device has been offered on multiple operating systems. But what about multiple carriers? Well, you can add T-Mobile to the list of wireless carriers getting the One M8 for Windows.
